Texas was one of the states we looked most forward to. Mostly because we have family there, but also because we have several very good family memories there.  I went to middle school at the Round Rock schools, and I really loved the area because of the wonderful family memories I have. Funny how those things stick with you.

This year, we will be staying just a few weeks, then heading to Florida. Next spring we plan on finding a SOWERs project around San Antonio so we can work here after our Palatki work project is finished.
